Orlando Magic big man Wendell Carter Jr. appeared to suffer a lower left leg injury on Monday afternoon in the team’s preseason opener against the New Orleans Pelicans. After contesting a mid-range jump shot from Pelicans new addition Daniel Theis, Carter came down awkwardly and appeared to twist his ankle on the Pelicans big man’s foot.

Carter went down to the ground in obvious pain and rolled over to his back before being helped to his feet and off the court. After throwing his headband in frustration, Carter was led down the Magic’s tunnel towards the locker room before yelling an explicit word in anger.

This is a developing story that will be updated shortly.
